Chapter 26: Choosing Materials

Chapter 26 Choosing Ingredients

"yes."

This time, Chunqi was much more energetic than before.

The young master has just entered the palace and can sew pajamas for His Majesty with his own hands. It seems that he is really deeply attached to the Holy Spirit.

I just opened the cabinet door and rummaged through it, then muttered again.

"Little Master, we didn't bring any materials to the palace, and all we brought were fabrics used by women. What should we do?"

Lin Wan thought for a while and called Xiaoluzi to ask.

"Is the person in charge of sewing fabrics in this palace the Imperial Secretary?"

Xiaoluzi nodded, and then answered respectfully.

"There are six warehouses and seven rooms in the Inner Palace Department. The cloth is in charge of the satin warehouse, and the embroiderer is in charge of the embroidery shop. If there are any areas that need to be mended, they are taken to the sewing room."

"Mother Fan, please get up, Chun Qi, and serve me some tea."

"My servant, Fan Baoju, the head of the inner court's treasury, has met my young master and wishes him well."

These days, she took a closer look and found that this path was really good.

Chun Qi looked like this, but Xia An, through this incident, vaguely felt that the little master was a little different from before.

"Then if I want to sew pajamas for His Majesty, I should go to the satin warehouse to find materials, right?"

After saying that, he deliberately picked up the pomegranate sachet hanging on his body and "showed off" it to Xia An and Xiao Luzi.

It’s no wonder that the head of the satin library is dressed like this.

"Unfortunately, last year's Shuiguang Brocade only produced six pieces as tribute, and they were all rewarded by His Majesty. This year's ones have not yet been delivered, so the satin library does not have this material."

I have to say that the goods in this palace are better than those outside.

Xia An had seen it many times, so he was used to it, but Xiao Luzi took it and took a closer look, with a surprise in his eyes.

It seemed that Eunuch Qin really treated him well.

So he ordered towards the path.

"I've written it down, I'm going to look for it now."

He originally wanted to say that he could ask Eunuch Qin, but he swallowed his words again, for fear of making the young master worry again.

"Since I am making pajamas for His Majesty, I boldly picked some. The material is soft and silky, and the color is elegant. I think they are not much different from Shuiguang Brocade."

Why did I seem to be thinking more about His Majesty's affairs after I came out of Linzhi Palace today?

Although he is not very old, he is considered an "old man" in the palace, but he has not acquired the habit of flattering and bullying others.

Aunt Fan was a little surprised and was about to refuse, but Lin Wanyi continued.

"My young master, you have a good eye. This silk brocade looks ordinary, but it is the most cool and absorbent. Summer is coming soon. If it can be made into pajamas for His Majesty to wear, it will definitely be comfortable."

Then he raised his hands, and the maids waiting outside the door came in, holding different materials in their hands.

"He is Eunuch Qin's apprentice, and it is normal for him to communicate with Eunuch Qin. It's just that I don't like him spreading my words outside. It would be really good if he could keep his mouth shut."

Xiaoluzi explained.

When the ingredients were delivered to Lin Wanyi, people's eyes lit up.

Lin Wanyi smiled and said nonchalantly.

There is a small road, which is somewhat convenient for the Inner Palace, so she won't really give up the small road.

If you don't hit the smiling person with your hand, Lin Wanyi still wants to ask for help from others, so naturally she won't put on airs.

"I am new to the palace, and many things are not clear yet, so I need to talk to my grandma a few more words."

"You are fast on your feet and your face is familiar. Now go to the satin warehouse. If the treasurer is there, ask him to come over. If the treasurer is not here, ask him if there is any Shuiguang brocade sent from Jiangnan?"

Thinking of what she said about being pregnant some time ago, Xia An felt a little uneasy.

"The eldest lady's craftsmanship is really good. I think this slave is even better than the embroiderers in the palace."

Behind him was an elderly nanny. Not only was she tidy and tidy, but her clothes were also ironed very neatly. She looked like a respectable person at first glance.

Just seeing that Lin Wanyi was still as calm as before, she didn't say much.

Finally, he pointed to a piece of simple silk brocade and said.

"Well, that fabric is made of water silk unique to the south of the Yangtze River. It is comfortable and elegant in color. It is most suitable for making pajamas."

Others don't understand why they keep this most common one when there are obviously better and more expensive ones.

"Shui Guang Jin?"

She has been in charge of the satin warehouse for many years, and she knows exactly what materials have what uses.

"My young master is being polite. If that's the case, then this servant will be disrespectful."

So he said with a gentle smile.

"Look, this is what the eldest lady rewarded me."

"Back to my young master, you are right to say so, but I have never done anything like this before, so I am not sure."

"Well, His Majesty ordered me to make some pajamas. After much thought, I felt that the material was good, so I took a small road to find it."

"Aren't you afraid that he will go to the Inner Palace and communicate with Eunuch Qin again?"

"That's natural. Both the master and the palace servants in the palace have to order new clothes every spring, summer, autumn and winter. If there is a reward, they can't delay. So it looks like just a piece of clothing, but the people involved in it are...

The sea has gone."

"When I was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, there were some embroiderers, but their skills were not as good as the eldest lady's."

Originally I didn't plan to bring it because I never chose this silk brocade when making pajamas for His Majesty, but I thought since Lin promised to choose Shuiguang brocade, he might be interested in this silk brocade.

But does Eunuch Qin really think so highly of her?

Lin Wanyi was a little surprised that the apprentice who had protected her for so long was sent to her.

Lin Wanyi had an idea in her mind, and it seemed that she had to invite the treasurer of the satin library to come over.

As he spoke, he trotted away. Chunqi approached Lin Wanyi and asked curiously.

He reached out to take the tea brought by Chunqi, sat on the round stool, and started chatting with Lin Wanyi who was sitting on the open window.

Therefore, I still kept a little bit of my original intention in the palace.

If they were sold outside, I'm afraid each one would be worth a lot of money, and some would be even rarer than Shui Guang Jin, but Lin Wanyi took a look and didn't choose either.

After hearing other people's praise of the eldest lady, Chunqi was also very happy.

"It's true in the palace, a piece of pajamas can affect so many people."

"Just keep this one."

In the past, she would not have cared about these things.

"Slave, I heard from Xiao Luzi that you want Shui Guang Jin?"

After a while, Xiao Luzi hurried back from the Inner Palace.

On the other hand, the nanny Fan from the library had to look at Lin Wanyi with a high degree of admiration.

Unexpectedly, the two of them actually thought of going out.

Lin Wanyi had seen this kind of silk brocade when she was at her grandfather's house.

My grandmother is also good at knitting and embroidery, and she said that this silk brocade can be used as an alternative to water-glow brocade.

Ordinary people can't afford Shuiguang Brocade, so they will use this silk brocade instead. The effect is naturally not as good as Shuiguang Brocade, but it's not much worse.
